The weather surprised us with more sunshine for the most part today; Steve thought it was going to be a day of inside work, but he focused on two big outdoor projects instead. First item; more siding, on the south side mostly, but also by the basement door and Danny's man-cave. The second item was the shuffling of the massive amount of concrete block for the planter walls. No picture, but there's lots of block. Two pallettes worth. And of course, it wouldn't be an outside day without more dirt being moved; he also dug a trench for the footing of more of the block walls. Gonna look good I tell you...
And while Pete continued to make progress on the kitchen, mostly bit-by-bit, the bamboo flooring also showed up today. It's all in Danny's man-cave now getting acclimatized, though I don't know how effective that is when it's still in the plastic in the box it came in. Hmm..Stopped by Stone Way Electric to pick up a connector so Pete can install the oven tomorrow. Ordered the tile for the basement floor bump where we can't put the bamboo floor. Confirmed the plastic laminate order for the countertops. It's just buy, buy, buy right now.
And I put in Daniel's bedroom light and dimmer switch, and put dimmer switches in for the living room and dining room (hat-box) lights. Painted ceilings last night in the Danny's room and utility room look very good. And it was a Tempero do Brasil night tonight, this time with my buddy Jonathan, who's going to Boston on Thursday for a rowing regatta. We'll be doing yard work and electrical work. Yee ha...
